Trump: I might vote for Clinton too if I were Bush
The Washington Examiner ^ | September 21, 2016 | Al Weaver

Posted on 09/21/2016 6:14:32 AM PDT by kevcol

"Look, I fought his son very hard. It was a very tough battle — Jeb, and Jeb lost. He was expected to win," Trump told Time Warner News prior to a rally in North Carolina Wednesday. "He was expected to be the nominee and he lost."

"We're leading all over, and we seem to be doing very well. But I fought him and it was a very nasty contest. It was very nasty and I can understand that," Trump said. "Frankly, if I were him, maybe I'd go that direction too. Look, Jeb Bush signed a pledge. He didn't honor the pledge. They say it was a very nasty contest and it certainly was."

"But Jeb Bush didn't and I can understand how the Bush family feels," Trump added. "He was supposed to win. He was supposed to be the nominee. Not only wasn't he, he wasn't the nominee, but he didn't do very well."

Yesterday there was a great ad that showed the anti-elite movement around the world with the Les Deplorables theme running over it. That video ad seems to have disappeared on line. Can someone find me a link. I wanted to show it to others.

I recall the words "wimp factor" being assocated with GHWB some 25 years ago. Yes. It's hereditary.

The Bushes are mad that we would not elect a THIRD Bush.

Their sense of dynastic entitlement is off the charts.

That’s the correct bottom line. People need to keep their promises.

It’s one thing to not vote for the republican nominee over personal reasons. It’s an entirely different thing to not only vote for the Democrat but to make it public knowledge. I will never vote for another Bush for any reason. ever. So help me God.

Any one of them could have said "I will not sign the pledge and don't think anyone should be expected to do so". But Jeb, Cruz, and Kasich thought they'd pool their votes and get the nomination.

They got outsmarted. Now they look like asses who don't accept consequences for their decisions.

That was my first impression, also.

“And they still have big hopes for Jebs son, whatever his name is.”

George P. Bush. Kennedy levels of personal depravity and sociopathy.

He cannot be allowed to ascend.

INDEED x 100! I understand DT is being diplomatic, but as someone who worked hard for GWB caught grief at work, at night school and in my community....I cant stand him or his wife Laura who so loves a person as dispicable, mean, cruel etc as Hillary.

These politicians make their fortune cause we put them in office....we get much less out of it than they do...then they turn around sell you out, and totally forget the sacrifices their supporters made.

I don’t get that sense from Trump. He is very human and I feel like he really appreciates his supporters, his country and all he wants to do is make things good.

Most of the others(like the Bushes) are simply parasites, with a a bit better values than Soros and the Clintons.
